"Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, “Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down. And they overcame him by the blood of the …
Fruit of Righteousness
"Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by good conduct that his works are done in the meekness of wisdom.

Accounted Righteousness through Faith
"Therefore He who supplies the Spirit to you and works miracles among you, does He do it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? just as Abraham “believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.” Therefore know that only those who are of faith are sons of Abraham. …
Saints; With a Past
"Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you. But you were washed, but …
Testifying in Rome
"And it came to pass, that after three days Paul called the chief of the Jews together: and when they were come together, he said unto them, Men and brethren, though I have committed nothing against the people, or customs of our fathers, yet was I delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the …
Salvation to All the Earth
There is nothing new about evil. It has been in the world from the beginning of Creation. Since Adam and Eve fell in the garden of Eden there has been evil in the hearts of humankind. We are a fallen race. We are born into the world separated from God; and our hearts are evil. …
The Lord’s Prayer for Us
"These words spake Jesus, and lifted up His eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify Thy Son, that Thy Son also may glorify Thee: as Thou hast given Him power over all flesh, that He should give eternal life to as many as Thou hast given Him." John 17:1-2 (KJV) The …
The Ministry of Decrease
Christian men and women struggle with the labor of ministry; and its rewards. The greatest reward of ministry is seeing people come to faith in Christ Jesus, through of the preaching and teaching the word of God, that we do. Our influence on these people though should decrease as those individuals grow in the faith …
The People Who Desire to Hear Him
One of the things that causes jealousy in the hearts and minds of men and women is when someone else gets more notice, and attention than we do. This jealousy is quite evident among the religious leaders of Jesus's time on earth with us; walking, talking, teaching, living for the Father, and His glory. The …
Waiting for Years
There is a lack of patience in me. There is a lack of patience in me toward other people at times; especially when I am driving down the highway; or in the city. I must often correct my mind and thinking as I am driving. Many times; probably all the time; that correction comes from …
Offended by Jesus
In the United States of America people are easily offended. I will probably offend someone with this post today; but that is on your shoulders, not mine. We have a Constitutional right of Free Speech. That right, however, does not mean that we can say hurtful, evil, things that will cause harm to others. It …
The Journey to Jerusalem
This was Jesus's final journey to the city on the hill. He would not make it again, and He knew it. Yet, He journeyed to the place where He would die. Would you with joy, and passion go to the place you knew would mean your death? Of course you or I cannot know those …
The Presence of the Kingdom
The message of John the Baptist was one calling for repentance. You can read a portion of John's message in chapter 3 verses 7 through 12. Repentance. Repentance is a turning around. When one realizes they are going in the wrong direction. I hear people talk of there being many roads to god and heaven. …
